LYRICS
I’m not being cranky
I just hate this party
Think I might as well
Spend a night in hell
Reading torture magazine
Than pretending I’m one of you
They move wild and carefree
As hip as hip can be
I think I should split
But wait a minute
I feel something in my knees
Is it music or new voodoo ?
Can I resist this ?
Am I off my head, what’s shaking my hips ?
Can I resist this ?
It’s the kind of beat I just can’t dismiss
It’s too early for me
I can’t set myself free
Can we sit aside
I’m not qualified
I’m the worst you’ve ever seen
I’m as groovy as a bamboo
Air crawling in air sea
I feel all eyes on me
They have so much grace
And I’m out of place
Why am ’I feeling like a queen ?
Is it music or new voodoo ?
Can I resist this ?
Am I off my head, what’s shaking my hips ?
Can I resist this ?
It’s the kind of beat I just can’t dismiss

They are truly incredible. Excellent musicianship, excellent vocals, excellent lyrics, excellent songwriting... and Flore sings just as amazingly in English as she does in French! This is an incredibly rare thing to be able to do. I love L’imprératrice. Listening from Detroit.

this version is so splendid. spectacular. the looping synth in the beginning fading in, then out. the funky ass beat. this is everything i needed to hear my whole life. i will die happy knowing this kind of music exists.

C'est officiellement ma chanson préférée de l'impératrice (et j'en aime vraiment plein d'autres). C'est juste impossible de ne pas dancer, comme si ils savaient l'effet qu'elle allait avoir en ecrivant les paroles, c'est génial.

[@pouillefabrice3880]

L'Impératrice, vous êtes bons et elle est délicieuse. J'aime la légèreté et le peps de votre musique, qui m'emmène, qui me stimule, qui me fait voyager, encore et toujours. J'aurais presque envie de vous écouter les yeux fermés, pour être encore plus émerveillé, surpris parfois, mais il serait dommage de passer à côté de l'esthétique de votre film. Le doré, quelle évidanse... Vous savez toujours comment placer les basses, le rythme et la voix pour générer ce petit frisson qui remonte le long de l'échine. Merci L'Impératrice. Encore.
